Hemistich Hysteria!

ddgryphon · Nov 14, 2011

The sailors roam the night, the moon is blue and bright.

StephenD · Nov 15, 2011

the moon is blue and bright, an infomercial of madness.

CDSinex · Nov 15, 2011

An infomercial of madness as you relate your day.

Ambrosia · Nov 15, 2011

As you relate your day, my mind ceases to care.

JohnL · Nov 15, 2011

My mind ceases to care in the haze of summer school days.

ajc · Nov 15, 2011

In the haze of summer school days, I miss the seesaw of your voice.

CDSinex · Nov 15, 2011

I miss the seesaw of your voice, the gentle way you’d come and go.

ajc · Nov 15, 2011

The gentle way you’d come and go, the night would blink but your scent would linger.

kborsden · Nov 18, 2011

'blink | but' creates a 3rd verse part, i.e. C verse. So I'll use that as my A verse rather than your B verse ('the night would blink')

Butt, your scent would linger through the alcoholic haze.

JimmyB27 · Nov 18, 2011

Through the alcoholic haze, every saturday night I see you.

The inversion causes another caesura, and ultimately a 3rd section. Without the inversion/anastrophe we have 2 sections still, this is because the line is already inverted:

Through the alcoholic haze,| I see you every saturday night.

______________________

I see you every saturday night for as long as I hope.

For as long as I hope, the sun will surely shine

ajc · Nov 18, 2011

The sun will surely shine, the moon will likely glow.

CDSinex · Nov 18, 2011

The moon will likely glow, mirrored in a still pond.

ajc · Nov 20, 2011

Mirrored in a still pond, your face reflects the shame.

B.D. Eyeslie · Nov 22, 2011

Your face reflects the shame of swiped blueberry pie.

ddgryphon · Nov 22, 2011

The shame of swiped blueberry pie: discolored digits reveal the blue bandit.

ajc · Nov 29, 2011

Discolored digits reveal the blue bandit, pink lips reveal wet sighs.

CDSinex · Nov 29, 2011

Pink lips reveal wet sighs, as morning finds you here.

ajc · Nov 30, 2011

As morning finds you here, red wine knows exactly what I've done.

B.D. Eyeslie · Nov 30, 2011

Red wine knows exactly what I've done yet remains silent.

JimmyB27 · Nov 30, 2011

Yet remains silent, Yet should talk more.

Hey, I'm a fantasy writer, I can have unusual proper nouns...

ajc · Dec 1, 2011

Yet should talk more, her frozen lips match her heart.

ddgryphon · Dec 1, 2011

her frozen lips match her heart: they are relentlessly blue.

Xelebes · Dec 1, 2011

They are relentlessly blue, the blazons lent.
